<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 6078, member: 36"]A baking soda and water paste, rubbed on, can do the same job. Or pink/purple paste silver polish. Rubbed on with a q-tip, bakelite will turn the q-tip yellow. If you're quick, you can smell the stink too at the rubbed spot. If you have a good sniffer, you may just be able to use your thumb. Rub hard until the plastic heats up and smell for the stinky formaldehyde. Photos 3 and 4 look like bakelite, and I wouldn't be surprised about the last one either.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
